Scotland:A Land of Wisdom

In the 1740s,the famous French philosopher Voltaire said“We look to Scotland for all our ideas of

civilization.”That’s not a bad advertisement for any country when it comes to attracting people to search for a

first-class education.

According to the American author Arthur Herman,the Scots invented the modern world argues that Scottish

thinkers and intellectuals worked out many of the most important ideas on which modern life depends-everything

from the scientific method to market ideas did not just spread among intellectuals,but to those people in

business,government and the sciences who actually shaped the Western world.

It all started during the period that historians call the Scottish Enlightenment启蒙运动,which is usually seen as

taking place between the years 1740 and that,philosophy was mainly concemed with the thinkers of the Scottish

Enlightenment,the proper study of humanity was mankind itself.

Their reasoning was the philosopher David Hume,humanity was the right subject for philosophy because we

can examine human behavior and so find real evidence of how people think and from that we can make judgments

about the societies we live in and make concrete suggestions about how they can be improved,for universal benefit.

Hume’s enquiry into the nature of knowledge laid the foundations for the scientific method-the pursuit of truth

through friend and fellow resident of Edinburgh,Adam Smith,famously applied the study of mankind to the ways in

which mankind does ,he argued,was a form of pursuing our own interests through trading in markets,we all come to

benefit each other.

Smith’s idea has dominated modern views of also has wide was one of the philosophers to point out that

nations can become rich,free and powerful through peace,trade and invention.
